This transport map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.
It is recommended to name the SVG file “Renumbered National Highways map of India (Schematic).svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
This transport map image was uploaded in the JPEG format even though it consists of non-photographic data. This information could be stored more efficiently or accurately in the PNG or SVG format. If possible, please upload a PNG or SVG version of this image without compression artifacts, derived from a non-JPEG source (or with existing artifacts removed). After doing so, please tag the JPEG version with {{Superseded|NewImage.ext}} and remove this tag. This tag should not be applied to photographs or scans. If this image is a diagram or other image suitable for vectorisation, please tag this image with {{Convert to SVG}} instead of {{BadJPEG}}. If not suitable for vectorisation, use {{Convert to PNG}}.

DescriptionRenumbered National Highways map of India (Schematic).jpg
I have always been itching to make a graphic that shows the full network with the numbers which I have never been able to find.
The officially notified new numbering scheme for the NH network depending on its orientation and its geographical position.
Using my old File:India_roadway_map.svg as a base, I carefully plotted all the missing links and new highways on paper. Not only is this the first ever visualization of the new numbering scheme but also the most complete and updated map of the NH network you will find anywhere.
Apart from being a good visual reference, the map also helps to identify issues in the new numbering scheme caused by strictly following the east-west and north-south orientation rules.
